3 NBA FanDuel Studs to Target on 11/28/18
Anthony Davis, PF, New Orleans Pelicans
Price: $12,500
As is often the case when they're in action, the New Orleans Pelicans boast the highest implied total (123.5 points) on tonight's slate.
They're 6.0-point favorites against the Washington Wizards, a game that boasts a huge 241.0 over/under.
The Pels are no stranger to high-scoring spots, ranking 4th in offensive rating but only 27th in defensive rating while playing at the league's third-fastest pace. The Wizards aren't far behind in pace, ranking 6th, and while their 16th-ranked offensive rating isn't anything special, they sit only 29th in defensive rating. This game has all the makings of a shootout.
Anthony Davis' 60.2 FanDuel points per game is 5.0 more than anyone else is averaging this season (bigger than the gap between the second- and seventh-best marks), and there's really no question as to whether or not he's the league's best fantasy producer.
A $12,500 price tag isn't overly high for what he offers on a nightly basis, and when you combine that with a terrific matchup like he gets tonight, he makes for a top play in all formats.
